Los Vascos Reserve

Los Vascos is another producer that I’ve reviewed in the past.  In fact, they were one of the first Chilean producers to draw my attention.  One of the first things that many consumers notice about Los Vascos is that it’s owned by the highly regarded Bordeaux producer, Domaines Barons de Rothschild (Lafite).

I really liked the 2005 Los Vascos Cabernet Sauvignon and I equally enjoyed this Reserve, which is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Carmenere, Syrah and Malbec.

Los Vascos Reserve

This wine has a complex and earthy nose, with leather, mint, chocolate, smoke, dark cherry, raspberry… there’s a lot going on in this wine.  The fruit is ripe on the palate, where there is loads of black cherries, blackberries and plum. The fruit has a slightly dusty characteristic to it.  The tannins are a little heavy, but not overpowering.  There is a nice brightness to the finish.  Yes, I like it.
